"Oxford is pleased to provide SI-BONE a growth capital credit facility to support the company's continued expansion," said Christopher A. Herr, senior managing director at Oxford Finance.

"We are excited to support SI-BONE as they mature to their next phase of growth," said Shawn Parry, vice president of life science at Silicon Valley Bank. "SI-BONE is driving important medical advancements through its iFuse Implant System for the treatment of certain conditions that can cause lower back pain.
